Although the offense usually faces the blunt of the criticism, special teams has also been lacking. Specifically, punter Brad Wing and kicker Aldrick Rosas have played subpar to date.

“We got to win the kicking game and we got to win field position,” general manager Jerry Reese told reporters on Tuesday. “You have to play complementary football to win, to win games. The kicking game has to be better.”

Perhaps with that in mind, the Giants worked out former Idaho standout and Buffalo Bills kicker/punter Austin Rehkow on Wednesday.

The New York Daily News reports that Rehkow was in East Rutherford as part of the team’s weekly workouts, and while it may be nothing more than its usual due diligence, he could be an interesting name to remember should Wing and Rosas continue to struggle.

Rehkow signed with the Bills as an undrafted rookie free agent and competed at punter, ultimately losing the battle to Colton Schmidt. He has remained a free agent since.
